Hi I'm getting weird files with encrypted files names.
They always reappear even after I deleted them.
I recently formatted the data on my phone through TWRP while having some files left. This might be related. Anyone knows how to delete them permanently? Thanks.

Can you share a screenshot?
Encrypted Internal storage always will show weird folder/file names you had to enter your current password to let twrp decrypt your storage

this never happened before I recently changed my ROM. I tried wiping the dalvik but that was no help. Do I need to wipe the cache also? Could anyone help me out?
I've gotten that when I've accidentally restored an app's data without the app itself, then tried to install the app. Go into /data/app and delete the app's corresponding data folder. That might work.

Thank you so much this fixed everything!!!
I unlocked my phone and reformatted the sdcard a couple of weeks ago. I just noticed that I have nearly 1,200 zero-length files in the root of the sdcard with what look like randomly generated filenames - here is an example: fde2bd40-e3d1-4d4f-9db9-ca21e043d0ae. What is generating these empty files and why aren't they being cleaned up by whatever is creating them? Has anyone else run into this? The filenames all have the same pattern with hyphens after the same number of numbers and letters.

On the internal storage, there are three zero-length files with the same type of random filenames with the same pattern.
No replies, so I wanted to follow up for others. I ended up just deleting them all. I still have no idea where they came from - maybe titanium backup or some other program's temp files. I haven't had it happen again yet.
I have the same issue... I have no idea what's causing it, but when I try to delete all of them, they return within a day or so. Is there an application that causes these? Is it a phone leak? I have a Moto G XT1045.
Hi all
I've analysed my data partition and there's about 5gb of temporary files allocated to data/local/.drm

}
Is it safe to delete the temp files as that's a lot of space given my device has only 16gb internal and the color os doesn't allow app to SD transfer?
Thanks

I had the same problem. My oppo sometimes, totally randomly, mostly when it's plugged in, goes in a writing spree and creates these huge files in the /data/local/.Drm folder, up to choking the phone into freezing and preventing it from starting again. Luckily I had the teamwin recovery and I could free up some space to let it start again.
Anyway, I have this problem regularly. I just delete all those files or the entire folder and the phone is back to normal, no loss or no other collateral effect. I can't understand if it's a virus/malware that I have our anything else
Hello,
I am running Android 9. My phone didn't have space for daily whatsapp backups. So I used to delete the backed-up msgstore crypt db files of whatsapp daily. And I don't have whatsapp backup to google enabled. Now yesterday somewhere in the middle of the night, whatsapp has tried backing up to local storage and since the space wasn't enough, all the chats have been cleared, every message.
The media still exists on my gallery. I had some important messages which I wish to recover.
My phone is rooted and twrp installed.
I wish to know there if is a way to recover the deleted msgstore crypt db file from a few days ago from my phone. Is there a adb way where I can backup the userdata partition to pc and then search that on my pc using a recovery software.
Please let me know any way possible.
Thank you.
You may try to pull data in recovery mode using the attached tool

Hi, i have Mi 9T with lineageOS 17.1, that i deleted accidentally a folder with pictures, but as precaution, i have a few data recovering apps that use root and can do a proper "full" scan for recovery, instead of just "deleted" recovery.
they use root, but they don't see the partition where the user data is, and find nothing after scan. tried 3 apps that use root for a proper recovery, all result the same. nothing is found to recover. some don't let select where to scan, but the ones that have this option, only show this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Don't know if is a magisk problem, or if the "list" of partitions that is show to an root app is configurable, or i need to mount something to make it able to see the user data (i think /storage)
any help appreciated
